Inbound Email Size Limits
The inbound Salesforce Email Server has limits for attachment size and total email size. When an inbound message exceeds 35 MB, either the original sender of the email or the routing address receives a Mailer-Daemon bounce. Whether the sender or the routing address receives the Mailer-Daemon bounce depends on how the routing address redirects the email to the Salesforce Email Services Address.
Due to email encoding, total email size when delivered can inflate up to 33%. Thus, the inbound attachment size can range up to 25 MB, depending on other aspects of the email.
